What drives the score

How to read this

Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.

The value story

June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $1.99. 76 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 3 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 93 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 95 percent. The nearest things to it, DC Universe™ Online (free, scores 56) and Absolver ($2.99, scores 35), are both worse buys on this math.

Critics scored it 78. Players sit 12 points higher at 90 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.

Steam's global achievement data puts 34 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 8. This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 22 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written January 2026 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 2,059 reviews written there were positive, against 90 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.

19.6 hours to finish it, 106 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 5.4 times the campaign.

10 years after release it still had 652 people in it at once.

What players say

The game is alright. But to get the "Complete" experience, you need to spend roughly 300+ dollars. On-top of buying the game. smh

[![BANG Score](https://steambangers.com/api/badge/454650)](https://steambangers.com/game/454650/dragon-ball-xenoverse-2)

The BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.

Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 6, price as of Sep 24.

A number here look wrong? Tell me what it got wrong and I will look at the inputs behind it.
